GULLIBlLlTY.

The wild phantoms and shrleklnS
cries of worthless humbug can make
money by imposing upon the credulity
and ignorance Of an honest public, and
the supply OF this species of work seems
more than an adequate demand. The
enunciation of facts-facts that have
stood crucial tests-facts proven by
brain force and tangible evidence, should
satisfy all laudable enterprises; but the
execrable practice OF teaching false ideas
and doctrines for self-aggrandizement is
truly reprehensible and should oe
scorned by all classes.
When one house tells you that lodide OF
Potash is poison simply because their
opponents use it, and because they are
pandering to your ignorance, as they
suppose, you should look upon all sucn
as arrant frauds and their remedies as
unworthy public confidence, and If those
who make such assertions do not know
better, they are set of unenviable ig'
nOramuSeS.

Convict Labor.

Labor Commissioner Carroll d Wright
has issued report devoted to the subject
of convict labor. The question as to how
the criminal undergoing Imprisonment
shall be dealt with is one that has for years
been attracting the attention Of the thought.
ful.
OF late the organizations OF working nen
have been demanding that convict lI5or
shall not be put In competition with their
labor in any way, which would necessarily
result In contining the coaylcts with out
requiring any labor from them, aa1 that
means that those of the criminal classes
who have been tried and convicted mist
be supported In ideness by the labor Of the
honest class.
The labor of convicts was originally In
tended simply to provide for their support
aud keep them from being Charge upon
sthe community. Gradually this was changed
into plan by which the state could m Ike
money of the labor of its convicted erin
finals. Penitentiaries ana prison houses
were turned into great factories, VIII ,re
almost everything was made that WAS IN IN
ufactured outside OF the prIs IN walls. In
other states the conyicts were lease to la
bor both inside and outside the prison, the
object being to use so as t. mike then
most profitable to the state, without care
for the prisoners themselves, or as to how
others were affected.
Some OF the horrible abuses o. tn, lease
system In Georgia, Arkansas, NJ SsssiD ii,
and other states have been eypoS4i at dit-
ferent times, and the revelations were slel
that,an almost universal demand has bjel
lGade for the abolition Of the system, while
as before stated, the org Iniz atoms OF skilled
| labor are demanding that convict ithlr
shall not be put in competition with u :ir',
1t is impossible to conpy with bJth

made self-su't 'tlnlug, AMI thLt tley c!f-

Commissioner Wright suggests tho plil

and employing the couvlcts ut hani Labor,
using only stools AMI hand machines
| This would reduce the comp ,tltion t. 4
minimum, as the product of conyIcts thus
employed would not he large enough TO
visibly affect the market.

recommends has just been adopted by the
state of Massachusetts,, and presumably at
the recommendation of Mr., Wright, as he
is not only commissioner OF labor for the
United States, but also holds the same
position for the state OF Massachusetts,, and
possibly Mr.. Wright may have some preju-
dlces in favor Of the system adopted by his
own state. Whether this is so or not, the
plan suggested is an improvement on the
present systems, but not so great one as
is the methods of the model prison OF Cali
fornia, some description of which has been
given In the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN,.
Unfortunately, even II the commissioner
bad discovered and reported perfect plan
for the governauce of prisons, there is no
power to enforce It, Nearly all the prisons are
state institutions, and cannot be con
trolled by pational legislation. The report,
however, may do some good by calling the
attention of the states to better methods OF
prison government.

Ohio RepubllCang.

The Ohio Republican convention met in
Toledo on Wednesday evening, finished Its
work on Thursday, aud adjourned. 1t was
body composed OF representative Republi-
cans-that is, OF the very best class OF
American citizens-earnest, honest men,
controlled by high and elevating principles.
Necessarily, the work Of such body OF
en- was well done.
Democrats hoped, rather than expected,
that there would be dissensions and trouble
at this convention, as there very often Is at
Democratic conventions, the delegates to
which are not governed by any principle
but the desire of success.
The platform adopted Is declaration OF
principles upon which every American
citizen can stand, because 1t declares dis
tinctively and all throughout In favor OF
American ideas-a protective tariff, pro-
hibition OF undesirable emigrants, uoited
nation, liberal pensions for the nations
defenders, laad for the people, sympathy
for oppressed Ireland, restraint of llquir
selling within proper bounds, education for
the people, free elections, the improvement
Of American waterways, and the removal Of
The platform condemned all opposition
to these grand principles, no matter by
whom. The convention presented in fitting
terms the name OF its most distinguished
citizen, one OF the abest, oldest, and most
consistent Rcpublicans-JohuS Sherman-t1
the National Republican convention as that
OF man well qualified in every way for the
high position of President OF the United
States.
The admirable administration OF Gov
Foraker was enthusiastically inlorsed, aud
he was renominated by acclam4tion. Suit.
able candidates were selected for the other
Offices Of lieutenant governor aud Judges
of the supreme court, and the convention
adjourned, its work well and satisfactorily
done.
The Republican party OF Ohio, with the
candidate it selected and the platform f.
adopted, will have no difficulty in carrying
the state against the candidate of the
Democracy. 1t will only be question OF
how large the majority will be.
Besides securing Ohio the convention
most undoubtedly gave Senator Sherman
grand send of by its Endorsement as a
candidate for the presidency.

The MARYLAND pemoeratie Convention.

=
Senator Arthur z. German has again
shown his ability as an organizers and "b1ss."
1t is well known that the Democratic party
Of Maryland mas been controlled for years
by an unscrupulous ring, which dictate
nominations and controlled state policies,
and that Arthur z. German was the king
pin in this ring.
Time and again Democrats have pro-
tested against the methods OF the ring aui
rcvolted at It's control, but every time when
the convention met the ring was always
ready, controlled 1t, and brought the recilc-
trants into camp as humble followers In the
wake Of ring candidates.
The most vigorous and widespread o.
these revolts was that of this year, bu'
once more "Boss" Gormin stepped in aud
squelched It. And why not9 The smiling
face Of that great reformsr, Eigene His.
gins, appeared on his right, while that
other reformer, Morris \. Thomas, was o
bis left. The presence Of these two WAS -
guarantee that nothing wicked was inten lei
by "Boss" German or they woild no
have been there. Innocence anl p1ritl
were exempliiied by Higgins and Tuom rs
as the right and left supporters OF til
"boss," and his ticket was pat through With
outany trouble.
Senator German Is the shrewdest polltiea'
manager In the Democratic party, AMI IL /
mere play for him to handle little statt
like Maryland, particularly when he ha
not only all the state, but all the fedora
patronage at his command. as he had or
this occasion.
In acknowledgment of the services OF tn,
federal officials Boss German not only cor
daily indorsed the administration from
alpha to omega, but also indorsed civi
service reform, which vas very prope
thing to do In return for the active assist
anco Of Thomas, Higgins, and all "the res
OF the boys"
The gentlemen named on the ticket mr.
all well enough in themselves, but they ow,
fealty to and must obey the orders Of th
boss. The reform Democrats of MirylInC
can make up their minds that "reform'
will only come to that state through tn
Republican party. When they arrive n
this conclusion their opportunity will hav
come,
